Finger Dots

Les ponctuations digitales
2837

Behind the reindeer, a line of dots has been made with a finger dipped in red ochre. The pigment is thick and bright, in contrast to the palm dots on the same panel, which probably predate the finger dots. This theme is seen in other compositions in the cave.
